Human Melanocortin-2 Receptor: Identifying a Role for Residues in the TM4, EC2, and TM5 Domains in Activation and Trafficking as a Result of Co-Expression with the Accessory Protein, Mrap1 in Chinese Hamster Ovary Cells
Human melanocortin-2 receptor (hMC2R) co-expressed with the accessory protein mouse (m)MRAP1 in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells has been used as a model system to investigate the activation and trafficking of hMC2R. A previous study had shown that the N-terminal domain of mMRAP1 makes contact with...
